How to get all servers for a game?
So I’m making a game and I want to teleport the players to another server. I can kind of do this but it get an error message if i do it like 5 times in a row.
I have tried 2 different ways of doing it but they still have the same problem
Script 1:
01 | local URL = ("https://www.roblox.com/games/getgameinstancesjson?placeId="..game.PlaceId.."&startindex=") |
02 | local a = game:HttpGet(URL.."0") |
03 | local b = game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONDecode(a) |
04 | local function ServerHop() |
05 | for i,v in pairs(b.Collection) do |
06 | if v.UserCanJoin == true then |
07 | game:GetService("TeleportService"):TeleportToPlaceInstance(game.PlaceId, v.Guid) |
08 | end |
09 | end |
10 | end |
11 |
12 | ServerHop() |
Script 2:
01 | local servers = game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONDecode(game:HttpGet("https://games.roblox.com/v1/games/".. game.PlaceId.. "/servers/Public?sortOrder=Asc&limit=100")) |
02 | local function ServerHop() |
03 | for i,v in pairs(servers.data) do |
04 | if v.playing ~= v.maxPlayers and v.playerIds ~= game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.UserId then |
05 | game:GetService("TeleportService"):TeleportToPlaceInstance(game.PlaceId, v.id) |
06 | end |
07 | end |
08 | end |
09 |
10 | ServerHop() |
Is there any way to get all the servers of a game, not just 100 (or some number that isn’t all of them)? If there is an api link for that or something that would really help :)

An easy way to get a game's server list is using the Games Api. An example for this would be
1 | local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService") |
2 |
3 | local servers = HttpService:JSONDecode(HttpService:GetAsync("https://games.roblox.com/v1/games/4483381587/servers/Public?sortOrder=Asc&limit=100")) |
servers would now be a dictionary of place info. Accessing the list of servers would be as easy as
1 | for _, server in pairs(servers.data) do |
2 | print("Server Id: " .. server.id) |
3 | end |
The response body (servers) would look something like
01 | { |
02 | "previousPageCursor": null, |
03 | "nextPageCursor": null, |
04 | "data": [ |
05 | { |
06 | "id": "c89debe7-432e-47a3-8e5e-694c848b96d1", |
07 | "maxPlayers": 100, |
08 | "playing": 6, |
09 | "playerIds": [ |
10 | 348069207, |
11 | 1786509767, |
12 | 1641588628, |
13 | 1737102487, |
14 | 1761545992, |
15 | 1073629272 |
, and if you wanted to get the next page, simply add '&cursor=' and the nextPageCursor of that response body to the end.
If you found this answer helpful, do mark it as one.
